Discover the golden treasure of the culinary world with SpiceBloom’s Premium Persian Saffron Threads—one of the most prized and luxurious spices in existence. Carefully hand-harvested from the stigmas of Crocus sativus flowers, it takes approximately 17 saffron flowers to produce just 1 gram of this precious spice.

Our saffron is 100% pure, unadulterated, and sourced from the finest Persian farms known for producing saffron with intense aroma, vivid colour, and deep flavour. These dark red to reddish-brown threads release their full potential when steeped in warm water or milk, turning golden and infusing dishes with their signature earthy, floral, and slightly honeyed taste.


Key Features:

  • Authentic Persian Saffron – Known for its superior quality, bold colour, and complex flavour
  • Naturally Nutrient-Rich – Contains vitamin A, B1, B2, calcium, manganese, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus
  • 100% Pure Threads – No additives or fillers, hand-picked and carefully dried for maximum potency
  • Versatile Culinary Use – Ideal for both savoury and sweet recipes across global cuisines

Culinary Uses:

  • Infuse saffron in warm water, broth, or milk for 15–30 minutes to release colour and flavour
  • Use in rice dishes (like biryani, paella, and risotto)
  • Adds aromatic depth to soups, curries, seafood, sauces, and cream-based dishes
  • Enhances desserts like ice creams, custards, puddings, and saffron milkshakes

Storage Tips:

Store saffron threads in an airtight container in a cool, dark place to preserve aroma and flavour for up to 2–3 years.
